MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.--()--Today CloudOn, a leader in mobile productivity, is offering its CloudOn Pro service available to Mac/PC users FOR FREE to mark its 2nd anniversary.

Just 2 short years ago, CloudOn formally launched itself as a company after a very successful app release that took it to #1 in 60 countries in the App Store. The free productivity app enables mobile workers to create, edit and share documents from their mobile devices regardless of platform. Given its popularity, CloudOn began offering CloudOn Pro, a more sophisticated editing and sharing tool, available for iOS, Android, and Web for $3.99/month. As a token of appreciation to users, CloudOn is pleased to offer its Pro edition on the Web, at no cost, for 6 months to both new and existing customers.

  • 8.5 million downloads of CloudOn
  • 6.5 million registered users
  • 75 million documents edited
  • 1 BILLION app user actions
  • Average 1 million new users every 100 days

“When we launched the CloudOn app 2 years ago, my hope was to allow the mobile workforce to work smarter on mobile devices. Since enriching our sharing and collaboration capabilities, we are seeing new workflows across platforms, devices and storage providers,” said Milind Gadekar, CEO and founder of CloudOn. “We are thrilled with the rate of adoption and are delighted to celebrate with our loyal users.”

Free access to CloudOn Pro on the Web means users will be able to work with the full power of CloudOn, unlocking several advanced editing functions that are used over 400,000 times per month by current Pro subscribers. Such features include:
